Joe Biden and Kamala Harris on Thursday held a briefing on the California fires from the White House.
Tens of thousands of acres have burned, more than 10,000 structures have been reduced to ashes after several fires broke out in Los Angeles and the greater LA area this week.
Fire hydrants were bone dry and there weren’t enough firefighting resources because of Democrats like Governor Newsom and LA Mayor Karen Bass.
Most of the destruction could have been prevented if fire authorities cleared the underbrush and hydrants actually had water in them.
On Thursday Joe Biden announced the federal government would pay California 100% of the disaster response for the next 6 months.
During the briefing, Biden couldn’t even read a phone number from a script in front of him.

Joe Biden also cracked a joke during the briefing.
“Fire away! No pun intended!” Biden said to Kamala Harris.
Even Kamala Harris was shocked. It took a couple of seconds for her to digest what Biden said.
